Original Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket, as Issued. First UK Paperback Edition. A paperback reprint of the first edition thus (of the definitive edition based on a close study of the MS. sources in the British Library). Nineteen-page introduction by Cecil Day Lewis. Long memoir in appendix to rear by Edmund Blunden. Published as Chatto & Windus paperback CWP18. This paperback edition was first published in 1967, and reprinted in 1968, 1969, 1971, 1972 and 1974. The book follows the same format as the preceding hardback edition. ***Very good in stiff card printed covers. The covers are clean and unmarked, but have some edge creasing and rubbing commensurate with age and handling. Corners quite sharp. No tears to the covers. Light vertical reading creases to the spine. Page block edges clean. Internally also very good with a neat contemporary owner's name to the top of the half-title page. No creases or tears. Pages clean with no annotations and no foxing. Spine tight. ***216 mm x138 mm. x prelim-pages plus 191 pages including appendices - four facsimile handwritten drafts, including final draft of 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' and index of first lines to rear. ***Wilfred Owen's death in the First World War was an irreparable loss to English poetry. His war poems have kept their originality and force through the last forty years: the best of them were unequalled by any of that remarkable band of fellow-poets who fought on the Western Front, and they promised still greater things to come. ***This definitive edition of Owen's poetry, which is based on a close study of the MS. sources in the British Museum and elsewhere, contains a selection of the poet's juvenilia and several other unpublished poems, as well as all those which have appeared in the previous editions edited by Siegfried Sassoon and Edmund Blunden. The editor supplies an "apparatus criticus", giving variants made by Owen himself, and indicating where his text differs from that of the previous editors. He has also contributed a long Introduction, in which he discusses Owen's poetry and early life, making use of the poet's unpublished letters to his family. Edmund Blunden's Memoir, dealing with the war period, is reprinted as an appendix, and there are reproductions of four drafts of 'Anthem for Doomed Youth.' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper of the 1963 hardback edition] ***A paperback reprint of the first UK paperback edition, published by Chatto & Windus. Of interest to literary academics and collectors of Wilfred Owen and First World War literature and poetry titles. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Seller Inventory # PB433
